What we do
At SBP, we make sure biomass is sourced responsibly. Why? Because biomass can help fight climate change and build a circular bioeconomy, but only if it’s done right.
Think of us as a promise. When you see SBP certification, it’s our promise that the biomass behind it meets strict sustainability standards. It means forests are protected, communities are respected, and carbon stocks are maintained or increasing. It’s a promise that the bioeconomy can grow without harming nature or people.
Here’s how we keep that promise:
We check compliance
Independent auditors verify that companies follow those rules. If they do, they earn SBP certification.
We track the journey
Our digital systems trace biomass from its origin to its final use, so everyone knows it’s responsibly sourced.
We share the data
We publish information that helps governments, businesses, and the public understand the impact of biomass.
We set the rules
Our Standards define what “good biomass” looks like—covering biodiversity, carbon stocks, and social responsibility, and more.
Why does this matter?
Because biomass isn’t just for energy – it’s used in construction, packaging, chemicals, transport fuels, and even carbon removal. By making sure it’s sourced responsibly, we help these industries grow without compromising ecosystems or communities.
In short: SBP is the promise of good biomass – biomass that is good for climate, nature and people.
